Your first step into Dominican Bachata
Foundations Series
Learn Dominican bachata from the ground up — rhythm, movement, and connection. Build confidence that lasts beyond the studio.
Your first step into Dominican bachata isn’t about memorizing moves — it’s about learning to feel the rhythm and move with confidence from the ground up.
No partner. No choreography.
Just rhythm, play, and flow.
